My, I have boring titles lately. Boring content too, come to think of it. But I guess I’ll just update you a little. I’m in Kentucky visiting my fiance’s parents and headed back to Florida tomorrow. We have a *long* drive ahead of us!

Night before last we stayed in an Amish community. No running water, no electricity. It was quite interesting. When we first got there, we could see a slight glow from the windows. There were two oil lamps on. It was such a relaxing environment. We talked for a while and then headed to bed. First I was showed to the outhouse, which was down the stairs and out the basement door. Then I headed upstairs to my room, where the window was open a crack and the wind outside could heard whipping around and whistling as it passed over parts of the house.

The next day I started hearing doors open and things creak and I thought for sure it must be 3am, and they were getting up to do chores, but it was about 6, and in a few minutes someone knocked on my door and said breakfast was ready. Which was homemade bread, toasted, with eggs and granola and milk.

Then we bundled up and went for a buggy ride and ended up at their school for the special program (last day of school, I guess?). We sang together and the children sang, and a few people did some little speeches.
